Love that picture of your dad. That reminds me of my dad after a good outing of fishing. I always got stuck carrying all the gear and he lugged the fish.:)

Yea I remember I was about 6 years old and I begged the old man to take me fishing in "grampas" boat... We went he hnads me a six foot boat rod with a senator 6/0 on it thing weighed more than me.. I get a hit and almost ripped off the boat... Not knowing he was on I looked to him for help... His response was..." you hooked it, you deal with it till its at the side of the boat... Now reel boy..." Yea prob the best memory ever and a valuable lesson ... A 6 year old can take down monster bluefish... 36lbs holy blue.... I thought I would never live... any how the pic was taken By a guy that enetered it into a photo contest and won it... Same year same fish won the Point Judith bass and blue tourney...
